On November 11, STARK and House Beautiful celebrated the grand opening of STARK’s Sysosset, Long Island, showroom, which just launched the STARK Home division. STARK is now offering select area rugs to retail customers in six locations nationwide, though the majority of their business remains strictly to the trade. The evening also lauded the new book The Parish-Hadley Tree of Life: An Intimate History of the Legendary Design Firm. House Beautiful editor in chief Sophie Donelson and STARK Carpet & Fabric senior vice president Chad Stark were joined by Parish-Hadley alumni James Andrew, Brian del Toro, Britton Smith and Douglas C. Wright. Guests were invited to browse the latest collections of STARK carpets, rugs, wallcoverings and fabric.
